The wife and I and our little border Beau had a wonderful week at Valley View in Wren lodge and so peaceful, the owners Simon and Helen are lovely people and very obliging and friendly, we will definitely stay at Valley View again in the future and I can't recommend the site any higher, it's just perfect.
